Summer School on Algorithm Engineering

An International Summer School on Algorithm Engineering is organized as an accompanying event of the Final Meeting of the DFG Priority Program 1307 "Algorithm Engineering". The school aims to introduce the young researchers of a graduate level and above from all over the world to the field of algorithm engineering. It achieves it by bringing together the school's participants with the leading researchers in this field. The program will include lectures and "hands on" tutorials on such topics as

route planning in road networks

data compression

networks analysis

linear optimization

The lecturers will share their experience in all aspects of the algorithm engineering cycle - from the design and analysis of an algorithm to its implementation and evaluation.

Venue

The venue for the summber school is the House of the Ev. Akadamie Baden in the Black Forest resort Bad Herrenalb, about 30 kilometres south of Karlsruhe, Germany. The venue is easily reachable by train within 2 hrs from Frankfurt airport (FRA) or 40 minutes from the Karlsruhe main train station.
